Ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt

1 tablespoon sugar

4 teaspoons baking powder

1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda

3 tablespoons vegetable shortening

4 teaspoons Butter Flavor Crisco

1 cup buttermilk

Preheat the oven to 400°F; in a large mixing basin, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 tablespoon sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda; Snip in shortenings until mixture forms coarse crumbs.

1 cup buttermilk, stirred in until a soft dough forms. Turn dough onto a floured board and knead gently 10 to 12 times, or until no longer sticky, re-flouring board as needed during kneading. GENTLY pat or roll each half of the dough into an 8-inch circle 1/2-inch thick. Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits by pushing straight down. Continue cutting while reforming scraps as little as possible. Place the cut biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet, just brushing the sides; BRUSH the tops of the biscuits with whole milk.

Bake for 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

After baking, immediately brush the biscuits with margarine.
